The company's G series includes diesel and "recycled energy" power systems.
German material handling equipment manufacturer Sennebogen has launched the 835 G Hybrid material handling machine, which it calls the beginning of a new generation of G series machines. The 835 G is equipped with a 188 kW Stage V diesel engine and Sennebogen's so-called green hybrid energy recovery system.
Ten years after the launch of the E series, Sennebogen said it has taken another big step. According to the company, the 835 G's equipment is 20 meters (65 feet) long and is mainly used for waste and wood processing and port operations.
The diesel engine of the new loader is supplemented by a green hybrid energy recovery system, "this significantly improves the overall operating performance of the system," Sennebogen said. According to the company, the machine has gained extra working speed and higher handling performance, while reducing fuel costs by approximately 30%.
Sennebogen said that the 835 G Hybrid is also available in an electric version. "This can also reduce operating costs by up to 50%, [at the same time] environmentally friendly, emission-free electric motors provide low noise and vibration-free operation even under the most demanding conditions," the company said.
"The system itself functions like a tensioned spring, supporting the working movement of the boom," said Sennebogen of Energy Recovery Technology. The company added that these components, the third hydraulic cylinder on the boom and the nitrogen accumulator at the rear, are safe to install and "almost maintenance-free."
Sennebogen added: “The efficiency of the material handling machine has been further improved, and the hydraulic system has been completely redesigned-every hose guide, every diameter, every valve and all flow cross-sections have been checked and optimized. All this Everything really adjusts the hydraulic system by properly releasing the pressure on the pump system."
Sennebogen Maxcab is also part of the new series. The cab is equipped with sliding doors for easy access and an ergonomic joystick. The windows of the cab are designed to provide unobstructed views of the surrounding environment. "The design and kinematics of the cab lift have been further improved, and the operator can now be lifted in a more comfortable way," Sennebogen said.
In terms of maintenance, Sennebogen said that the components of the 835 G Hybrid are easier to access, “due to the clearly structured machine design and central maintenance point, work becomes easier.” The company added that numerous platforms and handles ensure a high degree of safety.
The Mississippi State Development Agency awarded grants totaling $25,000 to showcase potential advances in energy and agricultural technology.
The Mississippi State Development Agency (MDA) recently announced the winners of the "V-Quad Contest", which is an opportunity for Mississippi innovators to demonstrate potential advancements in energy and agricultural technology.
MDA provided a grant of US$7,500 to Meridian’s Magna Gold Oil. The company’s publicity focused on recycling roof tiles. Magna Gold Oil has obtained a patent for the process of recycling waste domestic asphalt roof tiles (non-biodegradable) into a commercially useful and environmentally friendly product, which can be sold as low-sulfur marine fuel.
The semi-automatic prototype has been developed in the laboratory, and the experimental data and tests have been completed. Magna Gold Oil will communicate with local and state economic partners/investors to determine suitable locations in Lauderdale County for its pilot-scale fully automated installations. The company will use the device as a basis for scale-up and feasibility studies.
"It was an incredible experience, and we were blown away by the innovation that is happening in Mississippi," said Danny Russell, CEO of Magna Gold & Oil. "Since our team is currently planning to start building our first commercial automated factory, we will use the funds obtained to purchase sites for our factory in Lauderdale County. Thank you again for your trust in us, and we look forward to working with MDA , Continue to develop our company."
MDA also awarded a $7,500 bonus to a team of scientists from Mississippi State University (MSU). The team obtained a patent for a cost-effective process that uses renewable and sustainable by-products from the wood products industry to produce biomass-based Graphene nanomaterials.
Graphene significantly improves the properties of concrete, such as compressive strength, stiffness, and durability, which will result in a significant reduction in cement used in the concrete manufacturing process. The team is taking advantage of the properties of graphene materials. By using graphene materials as a reinforcing component of concrete, graphene materials may help reduce global carbon emissions while reducing the cost of graphene and concrete manufacturing.
"The experience is great," said Professor Zhang Jilei of Michigan State University. "The Mississippi V-Quad program provides our MSU start-up team with an excellent opportunity to watch educational video programs, build a network, truly work as a team, and obtain funds from V-Quad for our business."
Jackson's ConnectVNA received a $10,000 grant. ConnectVNA is creating digital workflows through an online portal and synchronizing with oil and gas business management software. The company is developing affordable and effective tools for upstream and midstream oil and gas companies, and by extending appropriate enterprise resource planning system data to end users, helping them to communicate more with their owners and stakeholders, suppliers and employees. The interaction of seams turns to a true digital workflow.
ConnectVNA is exploring other vertical areas with similar challenges, such as commercial buildings, that can benefit greatly from its portal technology.
"V-Quad helped us refocus on our core value proposition at Connect and made me understand that we need to constantly listen to the opinions of potential customers to better inform us of the way forward," said John Welch, managing partner of ConnectVNA. "We are very grateful for the opportunity to participate in V-Quad training camps and court games. Thank you very much Sumesh and everyone from the Mississippi Development Bureau who participated in V-Quad."
V-Quad is a partner of private companies and public institutions, and its goal is to support Mississippi entrepreneurs to develop businesses that focus on energy and agriculture-related technologies. It aims to connect public and private resources in Mississippi.
The state's C&D recyclers have noticed the complexity that previous legislation has imposed on California companies.
With the recent passage of legislation, Californians, agriculture, local governments, and businesses now have more options to dispose of processed wood waste.
California Governor Gavin Newsom signed AB 332 into law on August 31, after the bill was unanimously approved by the California legislature. The bill has an emergency clause that allows it to take effect immediately. AB 332 legally incorporates the previous treatment wood waste alternative management standard (AMS), which allows wood waste treated with preservatives to be treated in the composite lining part of an approved solid waste landfill.
"The adoption of AB 332 is a huge victory for homeowners, contractors, builders, environmentalists, and our infrastructure," said Dallin Brooks, executive director of the Western Timber Preservation Association (WWPI). "The broad support for the bill reaffirms that treated wood waste can be safely disposed of while providing environmental benefits."
In December 2020, the state's C&D recyclers discussed the complexity imposed by previous legislation on California companies with the magazine Construction and Demolition Recycling.
The AMS had been in effect for nearly 15 years before the plan expired on January 1, which caused major difficulties for everyone who needed to deal with the preservation of wood. Therefore, in the first three months of 2021, processed wood is only authorized to be processed in hazardous waste landfills. In March, the California Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) developed a difference plan in which people who handle treated wood can purchase a difference plan that allows disposal in approved composite-lined landfills in accordance with AMS regulations.
With the adoption of AB 332, all processed wood waste differences became invalid and no longer valid. However, this should not be a problem, as the new law creates more processing options through previously approved processing regulations. For more information about processed wood waste, interested parties can visit the DTSC website.
Brooks attributed the passage of the bill to a broad industry coalition that includes timber protectors, local jurisdictions, waste transporters, contractors, building material distributors, agricultural associations and environmentalists, as well as many other affiliated industries.
"Over the past two decades, we have demonstrated a reliable record of responsible and safe handling of treated wood in a way that protects the environment and allows simple compliance. We are very pleased that the legislators and governors agree that AMS is The smartest way to dispose of treated wood at the end of its service," Brooks said.
WWPI stated that it will cooperate with stakeholders such as DTSC, landfills, transfer stations and transporters to smoothly re-implement the disposal plan and provide disposal education.

The company introduced a two-axis shredder model designed for multi-shift, continuous pre-shredding.
The company stated that Untha America, located in Hampton, New Hampshire, has released a two-shaft shredder ZR, designed for multi-shift, continuous pre-shredding-even when dealing with things that some people think are not economically shredding. The same is true for difficult materials. Its debut was after 24 months of research and development, including prototype trials in Europe.
According to the company, the paper shredder is expected to achieve the lowest life cycle cost (LCC) of waste, wood, electronics and metal shredded paper in its class.
Untha says that the machine's low-speed, high-torque drive can handle heavy-duty applications with high levels of shredder and final plant availability. Its modular, quick-change cutting table design also provides versatility.
ZR2400H is designed for the high throughput of various large materials, commercial and industrial materials, wood chips, municipal solid waste, mattresses, carpets, railway sleepers, bales and rolled goods. Untha said the model can be used as a static or mobile machine with tracks, with the goal of reducing volume, decomposing materials for further processing and producing alternative fuels. The cutting system is suitable for cement plants, biomass and energy recovery industries, material recovery facilities (MRF), sorting and waste treatment companies.
ZR2400W is specially designed for metal scrap crushing, and it can also process electronic scraps and large household appliances for downstream sorting. The company says it is an ideal choice for metal processors, recyclers, and aluminum and metal manufacturers.
The ZR pre-shredder has an independent bidirectional axis rotation function, which can grab, cut and release materials forward and backward.
The two pre-shredders are also equipped with Untha Eco Power Drives equipped with water-cooled synchronous motors, which the company claims can reduce energy consumption by up to 75%.
Sales Director Peter Streinik said: "For ZR, we are talking about a reliable power unit that can be worth the money. Like all our shredders, this innovation aims to achieve long service intervals, easy maintenance, Safe operation and long uptime. But what really makes it stand out among similar products is the ability to handle difficult-to-handle materials at low cost.
The ZR shredder is equipped with Untha Genius, the company's condition monitoring system. Operators can access the performance data of its shredder in real time through any device.
Hubert A. Schwarz is the processing and process development supervisor of Schaufler, an Austrian tool company. He tested the ZR prototype for 12 months during the machine development phase. He said: "The most important advantage of ZR is its versatility-the device can be used at the same time. Shred large and coarse [non-ferrous metal] metals and composite materials; fast, simple and efficient cleaning and maintenance; and low energy consumption-compared with other manufacturers, after using ZR, we can save 82,000 US dollars in energy costs each year ."
